Can I complete this quest even though I have passed level 23?
Yes, you just need to complete all previous quests then this quest will start automatically

How do I search garbage for a cupcake?
Kick over the trash can first then you will get the option
I can’t afford the bingo hall, how can I earn more simoleons?
This post may help
Can I build the bingo hall early?
No, you have to wait until you get the goal in the quest before you can build the bingo hall
What do you mean when you say a goal can be started early?
Any goal that you can normally do can be started early because you will have access to it and any goal that you can’t normally do you will have to wait until you get the goal to be able to complete it
The tip with this method is to put the sim doing that action early in a different house that you cannot go to until you get that goal or it will not work
How do I get 5 sims in a house?
Click on the whistle next to sims who aren’t busy on the simtracker from the house you want them at
How do I get my sims to woohoo?
You need two sims who are partners to be able to get this interaction
What do I get if I complete this quest in the time limit?
An exercise bike
What happens if I don’t complete in the time limit, can I still finish this quest?
Yes you have to finish it to be able to age your adults to seniors before you can move onto the next quest
I didn’t complete in the time limit, can I restart the quest?
No, you cannot redo quests
Can I still get the prize if I don’t complete in the time limit?
No, the only way to get the limited time prizes is by completing the quest in the time limit
I don’t like this quest! Can I just skip it?
No, you have to complete this quest before you can move onto the next one
Some times are slightly different on my game, why is this?
Times may vary depending on the star rating of the item you are using, as the higher star rating an item has the quicker you will complete a goal
Some times are really off/ different goals show for me, why is this?
This will be because the quest has been updated recently, I try my best to keep these posts up to date but it is difficult as I cannot redo every quest each time the game is updated. If you notice any changes please let me know so I can update the post

I’m trying to find the exercise bike, but it’s neither in the ‘In-App Purchase’-section as in the ‘Electronic’-section. Does anyone know where I can find it?
it is at the end of the electronics section, but only if you complete the quest in time.
Can i start the ice-skating (devoted dance) early at my frozen swimming pool using the weather machine while my snow park is almost done building?
Probably but I’m not completely sure 😛
I tried starting devoted dance early on a frozen pool, but when I went to visit my skating sim, it didn’t complete the task. I guess you have to do it at the Snow Park.
I just wanted to say your blog is helpful and makes my life so much easier. To know what buildings you need to have and such. I just have one question. Do ou know if there is ever a cap on the price of buildings or does the price always go up? Thanks in advance. And if you don’t know the answer thanks anyway. And I hope you have a wonderful day and have fun on the Christmas quest. On a.side note, you do your quests really quickly I was super impressed by how quick you finished the thanksgiving quests.
Thanks again.
I’m glad it helps!
No, the price always goes up
Thank you! You too! Yeah I used a few LPs to get through that one 🙂
Where is the bingo hall? Can I start it early? 🙂
On the mysterious island, and no you can’t
Hi!!! How seniors earn money??? Only from bingo hall?
And by planting and baking
How do you dispose of the cupcakes
Click on the trash can after kicking it over
does it cost money to build the bingo hall?
Yes, price depends on how many other buildings you have.
Will the bingo hall automatically take 36 hours or will it Jaut take 6 hours more than the last thing I built (like usual)?
And thank you sooooo much for making this blog, it has been incredibly helpful so far!
I think it will take 36 hours, on each game I have played it it was 36 hours
you’re welcome!
I did the fish-a-thon but it didn’t say that I completed the step…now I have to wait for another fish-a-thon 😦
did you start it early and finish it before you got the goal?
Can I build the Bingo Hall before hand? Or do I have to build it when they say so?
you have to wait until you get the goal to build it
Can I start the 24 hour fish a thon early?
Yes
How much does the bingo hall cost
price varies depending on how many buildings you have built already.
I dont have the snow park. Is there a way around this?
no sorry, you will have to build it.
Any recommendations on how many/ages of sims you should have before the automatic aging happens? I have seen so many reviews where people are furious that all their sims are aging faster than they can get younger ones to level up in their hobbies, jobs, etc.
not really but I would have a sim working on getting to level 6 on each hobby for the first time, just so you can complete the hobbies quicker before they die.
I know that the cost on the bingo hall depends on the building that are already built, but how much did you pay for it?
it cost me 100,000
That’s how much i paid too.
Since I’ve built the Bingo Hall my Competitions have stopped !?
that’s strange, I’m not sure why this has happened, sorry!
Hi. I just want to say, you are the only reason I continue (or am able) to play this game. Thank you. I am having trouble finding the cupcake. I have kicked over and cleaned up the garbage can. It seems as if it began properly. I am at a loss at what I should do. I am not able to get past this part of the quest.
you’re welcome
when you kick over the trash and click on it there should be an option to search for the cupcake as well as clean it up, make sure you are using the adult sim who made their future self
Yes, after I found the correct Sim, it worked. Thank you!
You’re welcome!
Where do i click to get foe devoted dance in snow park
on the darker patches of ice on the ice rink: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2013/11/22/the-sims-freeplay-hobbies-figure-skating/
Hi, am I able to do the Devoted Dance on the ice rink with a different SIM to the one I started the quest with? As my original sim does fishing as a hobby and I don’t want to lose progress.
Thanks!
yes you are
Does the sims being adult will automatically age? Or i should make them a senior first then age then die? Thanks 🙂
no they don’t automatically age, not at this quest anyway
you need to bake a cake to age an adult to a senior after completing this quest
Once you get to life dreams and legacies they will automatically age and seniors sims will die.
If i finished the legacy quest, is my adult sim will automatically go to senior ?
yes, all sims will automatically age once you complete the life dreams and legacies quest.
So I’ve started to get my head around then game. I just turned an adult into a Senior and read about the whole automatic ageing thing.. Correct me if I’m wrong but I’ll come to a period where ALL of my adults turn into seniors won’t I? And when that happens.. How am I going to earn money without most of my Sims being unable to work? Sure, I can garden and all that but all other activities don’t seem to yield as much revenue as working. How do you and other players cope (for the lack of a better word) with the whole ageing thing?
Yes there will be, you create new sims, so yes your adults will become seniors but you can add new adults to the town to restart the whole thing as once the seniors time is up they will die and leave your town
But that only starts on the life dreams and legacies quest so you have a few quests before then.
That’s true.. But won’t there be a a period when 90% of your sims are seniors, unable to work but you can’t create new sims yet because you’re maxed out on the population limit? I’m just a quest away from LDL so quite nervous about the possibility of making significantly less revenue in a week or so..
On another note I probably should’ve posted this Q in ‘Seniors’ post instead of the quest post -.- Sorry!
A great blog, by the way… Everyone I know who plays SFP refers to your blog. Very well appreciated!
Maybe but they won’t all age at the same time and seniors don’t take long to complete their life dreams so once they have finished you can move them on and add new adults
That’s okay! Don’t worry about it!
Thanks!
So u mean all of our now sims will die?!?!
eventually yes
Thanks so much!! I love knowing if I have to save money dor the quest but does that mean my bingo hall will cost 425 000 simmolins??
you’re welcome!
It shouldn’t cost that much, it should be around 100,000
How much is the bingo hall?
it varies but around 100,000
Can I still get the bike even if I didn’t finish the quest ?
no you can’t
When they say dispose of cupcakes where do you that
Using a trash can.
I had no issue with bingo and competitions…. But for the last month I haven’t been able to do either. They both say I have over 2,000 days until I have a new game/competition. Also I’m no longer getting daily mail. Any ideas??
Have you used any cheats on your game? Cheats mess up your game and cause things like this to happen.
How to go back to level 23?
you can’t go back, you have to complete quests in order so look in your quest queue to see how many you have to do before this one.
Hey, first of all good job with this website!
Now can I complete the ice skating task at a neighbour’s station? I don’t have one myself and I don’t have enough money to build it either… will it work?
Thanks!
I don’t think it will work at a neighbours, sorry!
I just wanted to say that the exercise bike can be used by adults and teenagers (not just seniors)! I do like it. I created an “exercise room” in a sim’s house with exercise bikes, a TV, and showers. 🙂
Thanks for posting all of these quests! I read your blog for each quest. Now I’m on life dreams & legacies! 🙂
Ooh they must have changed that then, it used to be only for seniors, I will update the post now, thanks 🙂
You’re welcome!
I don’t know what happened, Game Center has been acting wonky and won’t sign in. Now I was doing the seniors quest and it was none of the same objectives you have listed here and halfway through the quest it skipped forward to the bird hobby quest. Now I can’t age adults to seniors and it keeps messing up and erasing progress on simple actions like gardening n the works. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I’ve already singed in and out of Facebook and every time I open gamecemter the app freezes up and needs to be closed out, even in the settings for the iPad itself.
Well your game sounds completely messed up! I think you should contact EA to see if they can help, if they can’t then the only thing I can suggest is restarting your game which I know is annoying
For the game center issue, have you tried restarting your device before opening game center to see if that stops it closing?
Where is the snow park?
This post will show you where the snow park is: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2014/06/26/the-sims-freeplay-town-map/
Where is the bingo hall
on the mysterious island
Hello there 🙂
I’m at the part where is says visit snow park and I don’t have it so it there an alternative to doing this part?
No you have to build the snow park to finish this quest
Ok thanks. Well no exercise bike for me
Not got enough to build snow park 
How much does bingo hall cost ?
about 100,000
How much will the bike be if I don’t finish on time because the bingo hall costs 100,000$ and I only have 36,000 so how much will it cost if you have any tips to get more money faster please tell me🙏😩😫😁☺️
It says in the post the bike costs 15,000.

First of all, thank you so much for this blog! I reference it almost every day… I think I have an addition to sims.
Anyways, for this quest I tried to “feed the pigeons” with a teen and ended up wasting about 7 hours before figuring out I had to do it with an adult. I think others may find that information useful if you add it to your post.
I would like to say once again, thank you for this blog. Because omg, I did the same thing using a teen to feed pigeons. Now I know. I even put in a request to EA to fix the glitch. Thanks again for having all of this information made available to us!
How do you take pat in the fish a thin thing please help..:(
it is the fishing hobby, go to the park and click on the fishing rod, select the correct option.
Can you do the Fish-A-Thon early and then leave it until the goal appears? My bingo hall has like a day left til completed to can I begin the fish-a-thon until the hall is done?
yes you can
I’m almost done. How do you have a house party to have two sims Woohoo?
the two goals are have 5 sims in one house, use the whistle on the simtacker to bring them there
then the next goal is have two sims woohoo, sims need to be partners to have this option
Thanks! It worked. Been driving me nuts for days now.
you’re welcome!
Ah darn it! I didn’t realize I’d need the Snow Park and hadn’t bothered to build it. Thank goodness for this blog! At least I got a little bit of warning, so it won’t cost me as many LPs to build, as it would have done 🙂 Teach me not to pay attention though, as thinking about it, I’m sure you’ve told us before, that we will need the Snow Park for the Seniors quest 😉
One of my weekly tasks is participate in a fishathon. It so happens I am building the bingo hall now and the next task in the quest is participate in a fishathon. Will it only complete one task? I’d hate to have the task complete the weekly quest and not the senior quest because I think I might run out of time. Maybe I shiuld end the fishathon now, skip the weekly task and start again so it completes for the senior task?
It will complete for both goals if you wait until you complete the bingo hall before going back to the park
Awesome! Thank you. Great blog btw. Helps with all the quests
you’re welcome!
I’m glad it helps
What do you click on in the Snow Park to ice skate
the dark grey circles on the ice hockey rink
Where is the x mark i can’t find it
At the park, near the door.
Completely unrelated to senior quest, but my community center ballet and karate hobbies don’t seem to give XP…the sim’s hobby level advances but no XP and they don’t get any prizes…also when I look at the hobby tab, karate and ballet don’t show up as preteen hobbies…any ideas?
That’s because they are different to the other hobbies, you don’t get a collectible each time you do it, so they don’t show in the hobby tab, the first time you complete both hobbies you unlock prizes when you level up but that is it.
Yesterday I started building the costume and swim store Then, today I got this quest and read your post and realized that I needed to build the Snow Park. The costume and swim store has 36 hours left and I don’t have any LPs because I used them on the last quest. I also need $200,000 to build the Snow Park. Is there any way I can get 40 LPs and $200,000 in 4 days?
Sorry I just checked and I actually need 52 LPs to finish the costume and swim store 😕

If you haven’t build the snow park, is there any other way to complete the task other than buiding the snowpark? btw I also want to thank you for your helpful posts about the quest. :))
no sorry, you have to build the snowpark for this quest
you’re welcome!
How much is the bingo hall? I just want to have in my mind how much money I should be saving.
about 200,000
What happens if u haven’t built the snowpack yet?
you can’t complete the quest until you have build the snow park
If I miss out how can my sims become senors
it doesn’t matter how long it takes you to complete the quest, the time limit is just for the prize, not to age your sims, once you have complete the quest your sims can become seniors
